Sony released a new camera PXW-FS7 in 2014. It uses the same sensor as the Sony PMW-F5 and a lot of the camera is, I am sure, shared with the F5. The XDCA-FS7 supports the vivid colour of 12-bit linear RAW at either 4K or 2K resolution. Use a single BNC cable to connect the XDCA-FS7 to Sony’s HXR-IFR5 interface unit and AXS-R5 recorder. The XAVC codec options are great. As FS7 user, you may plan to import and edit Sony PXW-FS7 4K video on Mac, below content will be helpful.
In this article, we're looking at loading Sony PXW-FS7 4K XAVC video to Final Cut Pro and other various non-linear editing systems. Keep reading for a brief how-to.
After testing many video editing programs with Sony PXW-FS7 XAVC videos (4K 59.94P VBR, bit rate 600Mbps, MPEG-4 H.264/AVC), the result shows that we can't import 4K XAVC footage from Sony PXW-FS7 to FCP (FCP X, FCP 7, FCP 6) directly due to the codec incompatibility. Something else, there's actually no way to edit Sony PXW-FS7 4K recordings in Final Cut Pro natively.
